Randal, we rowed the reservoir-- but the wind came up behind us, and we rigged a tarp for a sail. At least half of it we had a free ride!

The last trip I did was the Colo. River thru the Grand Canyon, Lees Ferry to Diamond creek,225 miles! Like 31 days!
What a way to SEE the Canyon. Over a 100 miles of whitewater rapids! Colo. River has its own rating system, goes up to 10. Unless you are near a trail there is no hiking out of the canyon. Half of our food was Frozen, double foam wrapped ice chest with dry ice. There were 5 of US, in 3 rafts, me solo in my 14 ft. SOTAR. If I could do one trip every year it would be the COLO./Grand Canyon.

Sounds like a great trip Randal. My brother was a guide for Grand Canyon Dories for several years. I guided in Oregon mostly, and a bit in Washington. My first trip may have been the best: a week on the Owyhee river in eastern Oregon. Two rafts, four people. I had to learn quickly. But the solitude ...

If I pledge two or three times to the kickstarter can I give one or two to other people as gifts?

Ref code, please.

Thanks Liv!

Looks well organized and admirable in intent. You lost me at "conservative and patriarchal" but striving to live according to Jesus' example is certainly uplifting.

I love this and can't wait to share it in its final form. Suggestions coming later today.

"This is a little odd to me. When you say a quarter of "dawn" do you mean a US $0.25 or quarter of a bottle? I think TBS or tps would explain the amount better."

I think that Paul is saying he would only need about 1/4 the amount of Dawn as compared to the Oasis soap that he buys. No measurement needed, it's just a relative comparison of cleaning power.

Hello, anyone home? Still working on an ecovillage in the Sequim/Port Angeles area?

Congratulations Dalton on starting your homestead near the Olympics. Looks like lots of progress from your YouTube videos.
